WEAKNESS / FEAR

Don’t Be a Drama Queen!

The Creator brand’s bad habits could be drama, needing their own way, playing the “I’m an artist” card. Letting perfectionism cloud the original vision. Artists need to be careful to not let their creativity trump pragmatism and common sense.

Don’t Be Ordinary!  — “Meh” visions. Ordinary projects. Lost inspiration and artistic blocks.  You may not like them but, sometimes, the details really do matter.

DiffErent Levels

Each archetype has levels. The lower levels are less advanced, while higher levels are more evolved or developed.

Level 1:
At its most basic, the Creator archetype is expressed by the act of creating, but not truly innovating. At level 1, “creativity” happens by simply imitating others.

Level 2:
Once able to move past imitation, and starting to give form to one’s own vision, the archetype begins to express authenticity. The process is deeper and more introspective, coming from within instead of looking at what is already out there.

Level 3:
At its highest level, the Creator archetype fosters true innovation and beauty, and creates something enduring that is able to influence society.
